The programme of replacement and refurbishment of Garda accommodation is based on agreed priorities established by An Garda Síochána and progressed by the Office of Public Works, which has responsibility for the provision and maintenance of Garda accommodation.
I am advised by the Garda authorities and the Office of Public Works that a contract is in place for the refurbishment and extension of the accommodation at Carndonagh Garda station with work due to commence in the coming days. This work will include the provision of additional accommodation, a Communications Room and enhancements to the Public Office.
While I do not have details of all the costs involved, I understand from the Office of Public Works that the relevant expenditure is likely to exceed €100,000.
